This is a new van purchased with the salesperson's guaranty that this van will get 16-18 MPG city and 24-26 or better freeway. Four months into owning the vehicle, the BEST mileage I can get so far is averaging 10.1 city and 14 freeway. Wish I had my Toyota Tacoma Prerunner back. Nice truck, great mileage.

Not for mountain/foothill dwellers

I liked this van at first,but after having it for 16 months I was more than happy to trade it in and will never buy another Kia.I do alot of mountain driving and long road trips. The front brakes had to be replaced 5 times, the rotors 2, the tires 2x (H rated tires are expensive) and recently the wheel bearings on the front left went out. I had to have it wrecker towed to the dealer. Luckily,the warranty covered the bearings and first 2 sets of front brakes and rotors. Other sedona owners in my area have had brake and tire issues as well. Even the service manager admitted these cars are not suited for those who live in mountainous areas.ext. warranty helped with rental but this van is not worth it!

My new experiance with Kia left me happy. I enjoy the power to pass when and who I want. Yet the fuel milage could be better. (20 mile per/gallon tops, on a good day). The room is adequate for my family of six. I had only one problem with my Kia in 8,700 miles. The rear heater stopped working shortly after I purchased my family van. And the dealer is so far away, it is a real experience taking it in (45 minutes away) for repair. Not only is it far, but with four kids it really makes it a miserable task.

I purchased my 2005 Kia Sedona a month ago and have just been more than pleased with the vehicle. My first priority was that it was safe and it received 5-star safety ratings. My next concern was affordability. I couldn't even touch a comparable mini-van for what I'm paying for my Kia. Overall, I am thrilled!
